Aston Villa vs Leicester City Match Thread

[saint13]

Two words...centre forward. Their's had been excellent with Vardy being a constant threat. Our's has been completely anonymous. Whenever the ball goes in to the box he is nowhere near it.

I actually thought we played pretty well against a  very good team. El Ghazi should have scored. Might have been very different if that goes in. Mings should have gone off immediately. Yoou don't run off a hamstring injury.

What this does show is there's a long long way to go for us to build a team capable of challenging for europe again.

Think people are being very naive thinking we can finish top 4 in two seasons.

Leicester have been rebuilding from the day they won the title and four seasons on they now they a team as good as that one imo.

Their link up play and game management is very very good and shows why they're above Man. City and won seven straight at this level.

We have hope.

Wesley is fucking shite.

It’s bordering on cruelty, putting him out there every week.
Such is his confidence..

Leicester are a bloody good side with a very good gameplan.

We have however, yet again been the architects of our own downfall. Poor from Wesley to give the ball away and Mings who was clearly injured and should have been substituted before their 1st goal.

They are a very very good side and yet we've hit the bar and also scored. Massive mistake leaving Mings on and doesn't reflect well on the manager, physio or player. Has any player ever run off a hamstring injury ffs.

Playing ok on the build up. But with Wesley, nowt to target. They look very good going fwd.

[PeterWithesShin]

I think this Leicester side is better than the one that won the league.

Come on Dean, let’s see what you are made of

Guess he felt it was more of a strain otherwise he'd have surely come off straight away.

Just yet more example of poor game management at this level which has cost us another goal v top side. We probably wouldn't have conceded that if we'd had 10 men on the pitch at that time.

Yes it was very poor all round.

we are the epitome of a one man team at the moment

It's got to the point where I dont want our players to pass to him.

Sheffield equalise in Norfolk.

Take wesley off. I cant stand the thought of more of the same from him
